Animal Cells and General
Animal Cells are what shape?
Circular/ Rounded
Plant Cells are what shape?
Rectangular
True or False: All living things are made up of one cell (unicellular) or more cells (multicellular).
True
An amoeba is a multicellular or unicellular organism?
Unicellular
___________ is the powerhouse of the cell. It produces energy necessary for the cell’s survival and functioning.
Mitochondria
The_____________ sorts important proteins and fats in the cell before they are delivered to their next destination.
The Golgi Apparatus
Plants get their energy through the process called _________?
Photosynthesis
True or False: Oxygen is the basic unit of life.
False: The cell is the basic unit of life.
Draw a flagellum
What type of cell uses this?
Wilson Judges
A network of bubbles and tubes that are either rough or smooth. It helps to modify and transport proteins.
Endoplasmic Reticulum
What contain the digestive enzymes for the cell.
Lysosomes
This organelle is a rigid layer with the primary purpose of protecting and providing support for the cell.
Cell Wall
True or False: All cells are created from existing cells through cell division.
Cell Theory says True!
Draw a cillia
What type of cell uses this?
Wilson Judges
This is a barrier around the cell. It is semi-permeable, meaning that it allows some things to enter the cell while other things are excluded.
Cell Membrane
The ________ is the control center of the cell. It also stores DNA and genetic information required for cell division and growth.
Nucleus
____________ contain chlorophyll, which is required for photosynthesis.
Chloroplasts
What is the smallest living thing that has characteristics of being a living thing.
A Cell!
Define a multicellular organism
A multicellular organism is made of more than one cell, with groups of cells taking on different specialized functions.
What organelle? It provides support for the internal structures of the cell. It contains the cell's organelles.
Cytoplasm
The ____________ is contained within the __________ and is responsible for making ribosomes.
The nucleolus is contained within the nucleus and is responsible for making ribosomes.
______________ are the smallest membrane in the cell and create protein. They are often referred to as protein factories.
Ribosomes
What are the 3 points of cell theory?
1. All living things are made up of one cell (unicellular) or more cells (multicellular).
2. The cell is the basic unit of life. It is the smallest living thing that has characteristics of a living thing.
3. All cells are created from existing cells through cell division.
Define a Unicellular Organism
A unicellular organism is made up of only one cell that carries out all the functions needed by the organism.
Tell me about Vacuoles; what they do, which cells they are in, what is special about them?
Found in both types of cells. Are storage centers. In a plant cell there is 1 and it is large (up to 90%). In animal cells, there are multiple smaller ones instead.
